This question is not related to the AlignmentEditor - it is the behaviour defined in the webextension - separately for Safari Extension and Chrome/Firefox Extension. The diffrence is from the way each extension communicate with the browser.
If we want to change anything inside webxtensions - we need to rebuild it and then publish it again to the stores. I don't think that it is a good moment for this - I will move this issue to the webextension repo and close this one.
May be when we continue to work on extensions in future (or not we :) ) - developers would be able to solve this task.
Irina, is there a way for you to fix issue 2) above: Could you please improve the message by removing the plural on pages? Could you just say: Alpheios Extension Disabled for the Page as it's on Mac?
right now it says This pages should be this page
First of all I was not able to reproduce this message. I tried to activate alpheios extension on (used alignment editor it embeds Alpheios Tools directly)
So I don't know how it works before - but now the checking mechanism doesn't work And it is really sad
I was able to reproduce it in Chrome/PC and also FF/PC. see version of webextension and the error.
to repro. I reload alignment editor with web extension on, I select an idexedDB file from splash screen. as soon as I go to the align text, the message is printed on top of the page
this is in Chrome/Mac. I was able to get the same message in FF/Mac too.
I was able tro get this message on PC/Chrome
But also it has 2 extensions attached
Anyway I would investigate it, but according to the issue
above: Could you please improve the message by removing the plural on pages? Could you just say: Alpheios Extension Disabled for the Page as it's on Mac? right now it says This pages should be this page
This message could be generated (by its workflow) on PC/MAC anad CHrome/Firefox So I couldn't rename the message to
Alpheios Extension Disabled for the Page as it's on Mac
Because it is not true. But I could change this pages -> this page.
Message is updated to
This page embeds Alpheios directly. The Alpheios browser extension is not needed for it and will be deactivated until you navigate away from the page.
message has been updated, see attachment
@irina060981 this works fine in the alignment editor except for the splash screen where I can disable the tools by clicking on the Alpheios icon from the toolbar. then when I resume an existing alignment the tools are automatically turned on. My understanding is that tools are embedded in the application so I should not be able to turn on|off. am I correct?

No, it is not true. It works the following way:
And that's all that is done here. Nothing else.
1) I noticed that I am getting a message in Chrome/PC that is missing in Chrome/Mac (I do have the tools installed on both). If I click on the tools icon, I see Alpheios Extension Disabled for Page on MAC. Why such a difference between PC and MAC? see PC message below and screenshot
